If you're not reloading a lot of 10ga you can do it all by hand. A dowel to fit into the shell with a nail in the end to deprime [ also need something with a hole for the primer to fall into ] . Another dowel to help seat the primer and to seat wads. With any shotgun shell reloading, wad pressure is never an issuse. Just enough to seat the wad. Anymore and all you're doing is collapsing the cushion area in a plastic wad which will want to spring back up latter. I know some reloading manuals call for wad pressure but it's unnecessary. If useing fiber wads just hand pressure is all that's necessary. You can make your own tools or find them at gun shows. You can then roll crimp with an old hand tool or buy one from B.P.'s that goes in a hand drill. Get the metal one, not the plastic.
